In the middle of an article geared towards explaining some of the current upheaval in Washington with regard to the Redskins’ front office structure, Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports also had a few notes on the Buffalo Bills’ front office and potential changes that could occur following the 2017 NFL draft.

In the article, La Canfora notes the following,

“And I continue to hear that new Bills coach Sean McDermott has growing cache with ownership and that team could be bringing in vice presidents and/or personnel figures with ties to the coach in the near future.”

La Canfora also goes a step further and indicates that a candidate for such an executive role has been tabbed:

“Panthers director of player personnel is someone particularly well thought of who could end up in Buffalo after the draft in one capacity or another. There are already rumblings that the marriage of McDermott and Bills Gm Doug Whaley likely isn’t built to last.”

The person in question in the La Canfora quote is Panthers Director of Player Personnel Don Gregory. Gregory last year was given the title as a promotion from his prior position as director of college scouting. Prior to Carolina, Gregory worked in a scouting capacity for the Kansas City Chiefs, the San Diego Chargers and a stint in the failed XFL.

With his 24 years of experience in both pro personnel and college scouting, it would remain to be seen how Doug Whaley and his lieutenants would fit in the new structure, should the move happen.
